Cal v. WSU 10.24.09 Photo Essay III

by TwistNHook on Oct 27, 2009 7:30 PM PDT in California Golden Bears Football

For this game we have photos from Monica's Dad Photostream and also from a reader who goes by the handle Matt Chan. Thanks to both of them for great photos.

I had written much of this out already and then it crashed and was lost. This is supposed to be auto-saved, but for some insane reason it did not auto save. So, I'll try to recreate it, but I'm not pleased to have to do this again and the writing might suffer. More so than normal.

This Child on Oski action cannot be legal in California:

Riley to Ross was still viable in the second half:

It led to this:

And while we were scoring TDs, they were doing a lot of this:

Here is a cool Vereen run:

Vereen scored a TD in the 2nd half. Matt Chan decided to take him for a test spin:

Soon, Oski Johnson was getting in on the act:

Oski Johnson prepares to get his Mike Tepper on:

Whoops for that guy:

SydGOD spent large parts of the second half on the stationary bike:

I had a solid joke here about how hot it was and how many people left, but I soldered on even though I suffer from the debilitating disease, rickets. But it was lost. Now, you'll never get to experience the wide range of all my rickets-related humor. Your loss, I guess. But, unlike my ricketed body, many others left the game early due to the brutal heat:

An important receipt:

I wanna go wherever these guys are going!

Ok, I feel calmer now. Looking at these photos of my drive home helped calm me down. Click to enlarge. GO BEARS!

It was 67 degrees, Twist. That’s 67 degrees Fahrenheit. A mere 19.4 degrees celsius. Maybe you’d like to take in a Rivercats game next time it hits 112 here.

By the way, nice job on the photo essay.

Nobody who wasn’t there can speak about the weather on the East Side.

I was there — on the West Side. I protest the repeated and continued discrimination on this site against West-Siders.

You clearly need a better Story.

What story could be better than West Side Story? It’s Shakespeare, for god’s sake — with music by Bernstein!

Had I the motivation and technical expertise, I would now make a montage of video clips of Jahvid with the Jet song as the soundtrack. You’ll just have to close your eyes … and imagine …

It was DEFINITELY hotter than 67 degrees. Definitely.

What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas. What happens in California makes the world go round.
